QB Online Personal Credit Card w/ Business Checking Account

So i am new to QB Online. I previously had used freshbooks. all of 2019 taxes and that were done by our accountant who is no online part of my small business so it's just me. I currenlty have a business checking account but also a personal CC that i use to buy everything and I just keep the points. Now my question is how should i go about this in the chart  of accounts? I have the CC in there but it is not tied to myself. my process is Purchase equipment with CC then when CC is due, I use the business checking out to pay it off. Any thoughts?

QB Online Personal Credit Card w/ Business Checking Account

I appreciate you for providing us in-depth details on your concern, j12obrien.

 

It seems like you are paying business expenses using your personal funds in your account. In QuickBooks Online (QBO), we can create a journal entry to record the purchase equipment transaction. 

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Click the New Plus icon. 
  2. Select Journal entry under Other
  3. Choose the expense account for the purchase on the first line. 
  4. Enter the purchase amount in the Debits column.
  5. Select Partner's equity or Owner's equity on the second line. 
  6. Enter the same purchase amount in the Credits column.
  7. Tap Save and close.

Then, proceed to Step 2 in this article to process reimbursement: Pay for business expenses with personal funds.
